Leadership Council for a Cleaner Anacostia River (LCCAR)

Chaired by the Honorable Anthony A. Williams and Director Tommy Wells, the Leadership Council is comprised of high-ranking officials and environmental leaders from federal, state and local agencies and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) with decades of experience working on the Anacostia River. The Leadership Council formal convenes quarterly where members receive project updates on the Anacostia River Sediment Project, discuss issues pertaining to project implementation, share relevant data, and exchange ideas and best practices.  The Leadership Council serves as a mechanism for cooperation between government officials and NGOs and reduces transaction costs by bringing all relevant stakeholders into one shared space.
